Abstract

The present invention relates to a method in particular for automated visualizing a logical network topology of an implemented 5G mobile network (10), wherein at least one network repository function, NRF, (40, 50, 80) and a plurality of network functions (41.1-41n; 51.1-51.n; 81.1-81.k) are implemented within the 5G mobile network (10). A central visualization application (95) requests all network function information of a plurality of network functions, NFs, (41.1-41n; 51.1-51.n; 81.1-81.k) from at least one NF repository function, NRF, (40, 50, 80) which collects these NF information from each of the plurality of NFs. (41.1-41n; 51.1-51.n; 81.1-81.k) The plurality of NFs (41.1-41n; 51.1-51.n; 81.1-81.k) performs or supports at least one network service or network application implemented in a 5G standardized mobile network (10). The visualization application (95) is configured to retrieve at least some of the NF information from the at least one NRF (40, 50, 80) and to generate in dependence of the received NF information a visual representation (110) of a logical network topology of the 5G mobile network (10), which is defined by the respective network functions.
